SHY PEOPLE GET NOWHERE IN LIFE. I know, I used to be one, until I came to the realization that unless I started being loud, and vocal about what I wanted, and what I felt, and who should lead, and what should be done, that I would simply be trampled over while the kids I wish I was did what I wish I could do.

So I'm going to get nowhere in life?

Way to be 10 years late to tell me.


Nah, I'm not saying that. I'm saying that if you do, it will be slower and with alot of people simply running over you because you didn't want to engage and speak up.

I don't know about your experience, but at my school, only a few people actually know everyone else. Most of us, however, simply don't pay much attention to anyone we don't know and aren't interested in knowing.


Well that's just sad.

Hey I'm a pretty shy dude and I like to think shits going good for me right now.

As you attempt to force someone to accept your view. *sigh*

2. So you want people to ignore all of functioning society? So they can never go outside, because someone will tell them what to do? Fuck that.
3. Isn't joining the group of non-conformists, conforming to something? Isn't saying you don't want to be accepted nonetheless being accepted into a similar group, doesn't conforming in anyway automatically get you kicked out of the non-conformist group and thus bullied for not accepting someones views that are now being forced on you?

Why isn't that realistic? Because you don't think you can do it? I'm telling you it's possible. You just need to know when and how to bend and duck in order to get ontop of them and be able to do what you want.

Also, you sound like you may have a mild case of sociopathy. Not trying to insult you or anything, but maybe you should look up the symptoms. ;)
